Goodbye…

Your fingertips across my skin

> The palm trees swaying in the wind
> Images
> You sang me Spanish lullabies
> The sweetest sadness in your eyes
> Clever trick
>
> Well, I never want to see you unhappy
> I thought you’d want the same for me
>
> Goodbye, my almost lover
> Goodbye, my hopeless dream
> I’m trying not to think about you
> Can’t you just let me be?
> So long, my luckless romance
> My back is turned on you
> Should’ve known you’d bring me heartache
> Almost lovers always do
>
> We walked along a crowded street
> You took my hand and danced with me
> Images
> And when you left, you kissed my lips
> You told me you would never, ever forget
> These images
>
> Well, I’d never want to see you unhappy
> I thought you’d want the same for me
>
> Goodbye, my almost lover
> Goodbye, my hopeless dream
> I’m trying not to think about you
> Can’t you just let me be?
> So long, my luckless romance
> My back is turned on you
> Should’ve known you’d bring me heartache
> Almost lovers always do
>
> I cannot go to the ocean
> I cannot drive the streets at night
> I cannot wake up in the morning
> Without you on my mind
> So you’re gone and I’m haunted
> And I bet you are just fine
>
> Did I make it that easy
> To walk right in and out of my life?
>
> Goodbye, my almost lover
> Goodbye, my hopeless dream
> I’m trying not to think about you
> Can’t you just let me be?
> So long, my luckless romance
> My back is turned on you
> Should’ve known you’d bring me heartache
> Almost lovers always do.
